A woman in Akwa Ibom is alleged to have taken the life of her own child by attacking him with a machete.

Ita Okokon, aka, Eka Isaac is said to have killed her 15-year-old son, Isaac because he was disrespectful to her.

The mother and son were involved in an argument and when Mrs. Okokon beat her teenage son, he retaliated by pushing her to the ground.

This angered the mother who on failing to catch her son, threw a machete at him thereby injuring him and causing his death.

Punch reports:

A neighbour, Miss Ekaette Effiong, told PUNCH Metro that when the mother beat Isaac, he retaliated instead of running away as a sign of respect.

Effiong added that Isaac hit his mother so hard that the woman fell to the ground.

“When Isaac hit his mother that hard, the woman felt humiliated. When she got up, she went inside the house and brought out the machete. She chased her son with the machete, but when she could not get him, she threw the machete at him, which cut through his body,” she said.

Effiong stated that neighbours, friends, relatives, and the mother rushed Isaac to a hospital where he died. The mother was said to have fled Atai Obio Offot when she discovered that Isaac had died.

The Police Public Relations Officer, Akwa Ibom State Command, Mr. Etim Dickson, confirmed the incident.
